Hours after Hurricane Milton made landfall roughly 70 miles south of Tampa Bay, the Category 3 storm, on its way through the city, ripped the roof off of the Tampa Bay Rays ballpark, Tropicana Field. Multiple videos on social media showed pieces of the roof shredded from the 100-plus MPH winds of the hurricane, though a clearer picture of the damage emerged Thursday morning via drone footage.
The Rays, in a statement released Thursday, confirmed that no injuries were sustained in the ballpark roof's destruction, and said it may take "weeks" to determine the full extent of the damage.
